Is there "too cold"?

[Andrew Breecher]

I've worn the kilt in -20F (-29C), including standing around outside waiting for the train, and also while snowshoeing. I will freely admit that I was cold. But so was everyone else, no matter what they were wearing. Despite the exposed knees, the kilt isn't any less warm than trousers.

Obviously this doesn't apply to Arctic-weight clothing. I wouldn't wear anything that exposes any skin if I'm going to get frostbite. Also, beware while wearing the kilt in the snow of reflected sunburns!

Andrew.
